Chapter 32:Side-story: A glimpse of their lives

2.5 years later

Azalea and Nora talked over video calls chatting about different stuff. Like they had once promised they talked to each other almost every day.

"How's life there?" Azalea asked.

"Oh It's good. The people are really nice and it's fun to hang out. What about you?"

"Oh nothing much, the usual here."

"Oh God! I think she's getting more and more spoiled as the days go by." Azalea stood up and began to walk somewhere, "Arius does everything she asks for!" She stopped in front of the door and showed Nora a sign which stated.

'Do not disturb unless there's a very serious emergency'

"Now try guessing what's happening in there?" Azalea asked.

"Uh, a meeting?" Nora asked.

"Yes." Azalea answered, "A tea party meeting of Arius and Athena."

Nora laughed, "That's so cute. Oh My God! A mafian boss having a tea party with tiny toys, sitting on a pink chair." She laughed again.

"He even wears a party hat for her." Azalea groaned, "And you know what? I'm never invited to the tea party!"

Nora laughed again, "Why not?"

"I just tell them not to overdo stuff but according to them I'm a party pooper!"

"Booooy!!! I can't!!" Nora laughed harder, "I get why Athena is getting spoiled. Is that why you're planning another child."

"Athena alone will be a mess."

"Well good luck to you."

"Yeah." Azalea walked to the lounge and sat down on the couch, "How's Noah and Caesar."

"Oh let me show you!" Nora took her camera and went to Caesar's office to show her best friend how her son had made Caesar's shoulder his favorite sitting place, "Just look at him. He's six months old and loves that place."

"The view is very cute."

"He grabs Caesar's hair so that he doesn't fall off but Caesar's constantly on the edge because he fears he might." Azalea noticed how Caesar's eyes were on the laptop screen while both his hands were hovering around Noah.

Clearly he was worried Noah might fall.

Caesar noticed his wife, "Nora, take Noah with you. I can't focus on work."

"Okay." Nora went ahead and picked Noah in his arms.

"Ahhhhh!" But like each time Noah gave a small fit when he was being taken away from his favorite sitting spot.

After taking her son in her arms she went to her room again and showed Noah the screen where he could see his aunt.

"Noah say hi to your aunt." Nora waved at the screen but Noah was just intrigued and kept staring.

"Hey Noah!" Azalea gave him a virtual kiss, "How're you doing?"

"Uwa!" I'm good, was probably what he said.

"Yup that's how it is!" Nora said, "I'm going to give Noah a bath now. We'll talk tomorrow."

"Yeah sure! Bye. Bye Noah."

"Un!" Noah bid her farewell too.

Nora chuckled, "Bye."

Both of them ended the call and went to do their respective work.

It was like this everyday.

They were busy with their lives and family but always made time for each other even if it was for a few minutes.
